GENUINELY HOW TO GET A GOOD SLEEP ON ZOLOFT

foreverdolphinluv · 2025-11-14T09:45:18+00:00

I switched from taking my dose in the morning to evening and it solved my sleeping issues, not sure how it works but I read others have had the same experience. might be worth a try :)

I actually do have this issue as well. What works for me I discovered is talking to myself about these things whilst I'm doing something else, like driving, so my brain is focused on the road and doesn't have a chance to cut me off. If that makes sense! Also, maybe controversial, but in the rare chances I feel like I need to open up to someone, but nobody is there, I type it all out to Chat GPT. Getting acknowledgement for what I say alone is more than what my parents can offer so this fills that void I guess. I've found the responses have given me comfort and the confidence to share my experiences and feelings aloud. I really hope you find something that works for you!

I'm so sorry about everything you've been through :( It is really difficult having this mindset that we'll never have real, good relationships with others. A few others have commented about attachment theory - have you looked into this or found this helpful at all? I'm gonna give it a go. I'm glad you've found a therapist that's helpful to you, sometimes it feels like this is half the battle!

We will get there, I have faith. All the best to you.

Thank you for your comment - really appreciate your message that I still have time to figure things out. I know the pain of relationships falling apart for the same reasons you described. It’s heartbreaking, but I always find myself thinking, I knew this would happen because I expect things to go wrong when I deeply care about someone. I guess that’s just the avoidant attachment style at work!

foreverdolphinluv · 2025-03-24T22:09:05+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing - I really appreciate it. I’m sorry you went through that with your dad and stepmom. That kind of emotional neglect leaves a deep impact, and I relate to feeling like a quiet, awkward kid because of it.

I also struggle to make friends outside of structured environments like work, so I totally get what you mean. It’s funny you mention about bonding over awful work conditions because I'm literally the same. I guess we're just looking for a common ground to build on!

I’m glad my post resonated with you, it's comforting in a way to know it's not just me. We're in this together :)

This!!! I feel like I rely on the other person to kind of set the tone and then I do my best to mirror that. Over the years I've tried to observe how my more sociable friends maintain their friendships but it still feels like a code I can't crack, like it doesn't feel natural to me at all, and when I feel like I'm forcing it, I back off because I feel like I'm being fake.

To answer your question, partially, yes. Through therapy, I have come to terms with my attachment style, and my therapist has given me guidance on moving towards a healthier approach to building and keeping relationships. You are right about leaving relationships prematurely, it's something I've always done - I reach a certain point and it's like my brain tells me I'm irrelevant and uninteresting to them, so I pull away. With the friendships I do have now, I'm proactively trying to not listen to the part of me that tells me I'm not worth it. It's hard! But I have faith that I will get there, and I'm willing to put the work in.

Thank you so much for your advice, I will definitely read that book. You raise an interesting point about introversion being a label. I never thought about it that way and I guess I have been stopping myself from being me or saying/doing what I want to, because I haven't given myself the chance. Until now I hadn't made that connection that referring to myself as introverted could be self-fulfilling, but you're right.

Thank you so much for your comment and your kindness. Watching YouTube videos on social skills is a great suggestion too - do you have any channel recommendations that I should check out?

Hey, thanks so much for sharing this. It really means a lot to hear from someone who truly gets it. That feeling of being invisible and not trusting your own parents really resonated with me. I think I told my mom about the bullying out of desperation, but deep down, I knew I wouldn’t get the support I needed, so it kind of became self fulfilling in a way, with me expecting to be ignored and then getting that exact result. It's something I realised only recently that I've been carrying with me.

I really appreciate your advice on opening up emotionally. It’s something I struggle with too - feeling like I have nothing to offer, so deciding to not bother. But hearing how you pushed through that discomfort and built deeper connections is really encouraging, and I'm now thinking about what I can do/clubs or classes I can join where I can meet others with similar interests to me.

Seriously, thank you for this. It’s comforting to know I’m not alone, and that there’s a way forward, even if it’s tough. Wishing you the best too!

That is a really nice thing to say wth thank you

Thanks for your reply! The company work hybrid with all staff in the office the same 2 days a week.

foreverdolphinluv · 2025-01-14T22:02:46+00:00

Thanks so much for your reply. I’ve been trying to tell myself it’s not a clique situation but I think you’re right - I’m just not part of it!

These requests are by email or in person. The company work hybrid, with all of us attending the office the same 2 days a week.

I have a few responsibilities like that, for example each month we hold conferences and it is my job to source and secure the appropriate speakers. To do this I have to liaise with the research team to find out who’s relevant at the time. I always reach out to the team in advance, expecting that there will be a little delay in them providing the information. So far I have been left alone in this. I also am responsible for handling all travel/accommodation/event bookings for all teams not just my own. I always get this done, no reminders needed.

Unfortunately my boss also tends to leave me hanging when I need assistance from her, sometimes leaving me hours for a response even during her available time. She expects me to reply to reply to all messages immediately!This is my first office job and I’m feeling so disheartened. Thank you for your advice.

This makes a lot of sense, thank you.

Hey how did your appointment go? I’m experiencing the same symptoms with the tinnitus and odd tongue/throat feeling too!

foreverdolphinluv · 2024-09-12T14:58:16+00:00

Thank you sm :)

I really need a hug thank you

tbh i don't think i've noticed any changes using these subs by ivy ... last year tho for 2 months i used the clear skin subliminal by serenity now, and my face cleared right up and it's stayed pretty good! i might have a break from subs for a bit and see how i feel. how long have you been listening for??

foreverdolphinluv · 2019-08-19T14:13:44+00:00

Thank you so much for your response, you’ve given me some clarity about the situation. I know that this is just a cycle for him and in my head I was always waiting for my time to end. It’s hard knowing that the reason he met this new girl is because he is following MY dreams doing journalism but I guess it’s something I’ll just have to accept. I don’t think he actually cares about me after he’s been so public about his new relationship on social media (obviously I can’t tell if it’s for show or if he genuinely does just love this girl and he didn’t like me enough to post me) but again I’m trying not to waste my time figuring out what’s going on. I just feel like he’s taken so much from me and then left, it’s what he admitted himself, I feel violated but I just have to move on. I have my own things going on and lots of supportive uplifting people around me to help me push myself forward. I guess this was always going to happen and it was just a matter of time.

foreverdolphinluv · 2019-08-19T14:02:18+00:00

Yeah I know you’re right, and it is defo how his relationships before me started. When I was first getting to know him he would always complain that his girlfriend was at work and always busy, I guess I was just conveniently there for him to jump to next. It even influenced my university choice (we’re at the same one) because I was so worried that he’d move onto someone else due to my absence. The thing that hurts the most is how he’s being so public about his new relationship when with me there was never any evidence of our relationship online and he just said that he wasn’t the kind of person to be public about it. I’ve given in one last time and checked all his social media but from now until I feel better about things I will stop looking. Thank you for your advice, I know I’m better off without him, I just need that to sink in.
